Description A line art commission for *Eviecats of her demon character, Lazarus. I struggled with his pose for much longer than I should have.

He was fun and yet a challenge to draw at the same time. I am still not sure what I think of the effect I used for the smoke/vapor coming from his stripes, but I hope he looks alright otherwise. I was also forced to acknowledge I was finding it a bit difficult that day to hatch and crosshatch a rather smooth coated character! Ack!

India ink with 108 Hunt nib on Bristol vellum. Sketch and line art commissions are still open, and run from $15-35 USD. Comment or note if you are interested.

Character © *Eviecats
Art © April Schumacher

I love this pose, every aspect of it really, it's pretty awesome. And I do think the effect of the stripes turned out quite nicely too!

He is black with cobalt blue stripes, assuming Palla approves to I would LOVE to see what colors you imagined for him! I always meant to make a whole "spectrum" of them with slightly different features but haven't gotten around to it...

I would make sure Palla says it's okay, she did this particular artwork of him as a commission for me ^_^ Maybe note her so she sees it sooner? And hey if not I have some line art of him in my gallery though not as freaking EPIC!

O_o That is epic. I would hate to see that fellow running into one of your Assassins. EPIC BATTLE OF THE CENTURY.

It's amusing, since I've been requested to do fight scenes involving others' characters against my pallanophs. I'm not sure how well they'd wage against anything possessing metaphysical power, poor things.

This reminds me a bit of a little thingy I did some while ago: [link]

Oh man I LOVE IT!!! It is so hard to do the stripes traditionally, when I first started drawing him from a memory from a dream I used digital to make it "glow" so when i reverted to my traditional roots it got a bit tricky! I think you did a lovely job I'm soooo happy! This made my day thank you so much!

Love his ears! And those four-toed front feet

I like the glow/fire/smoke effect on the stripes; it's subtle but there's obviously otherworldly weirdness afoot!

Thanks! It's funny how tricky he was to draw, since I draw things like this fairly often, I'd say. It must have just caught me on an off day.

Thank you so much! He actually just has cloven hooves and one sharp spine directly behind the front ankle though, rather than 4 ^_^
